Annapachi
I was actually going for a Ganesh line drawing for the middle but decided on an annapachi. Copied the basic design from one of my sarees then modified it to make it my design.

I love the blue pink combination in this - but I shouldn't have used red and yellow for the side designs, looks unbalanced.

Oh yes it took a long time to do - especially the annapachi coz of all the small lines. My back nearly went to sleep.

Isaiyin Nayagi
We had a sudden preview performance, and we're asked to do a kolam despite us performing as well. So in between practices we spent the afternoon putting this up and getting the decor done. Now this was one pitiful kolam. It got damaged 3 times. Right after putting it we had gone off to our practice came back to find it destroyed by a kid whose mom refused to admit the son did it. Then it was damaged further by this gal who wanted to be the hero and try to correct the damage despite my warnings of stay off. Finally after getting it repaired we came back after changing to find it once again damaged.



Can anyone guess whose the model behind the lady (famous musician) its not very accurate.
